2235 | And god that al this worlde hath wrought | |
| Sente hym his loue that dere had bought | |
| For now is Palamon in alle wele | |
| Lyuynge in blis in riches and in hele | |
| And Emely hym loueth so tenderly | |
2240 | And he here seruith so gentilly | |
| That ther was no word hem betwene | |
| Of ielousie or of ony othir tene | |
| Thus endith Palamon and Emelye | |
| And god saue al this companye | |
| ¶ Here endith the knyghtis tale . | |
| ¶ And begynneth the Milleris prolog . | |
| W | Han that þe knight had thus his tale told | |
| In al the companye nas ther yong ne old | |
| That he ne sayde it was a nobyl story | |
| And worthy to be drawe in memory | |
5 | And namely the gentilis euerichon | |
| Our hoost lowgh and swoor so mot I goon | |
| Thus vnbokelid wel is the male | |
| Let se now who shal telle another tale | |
| For trewly the game is wel begonne | |
10 | Now telle ye sir monk yf that ye konne | |
| Som what to quyte with the knyght his tale | |
| The Milward that fordronkyn was al pale | |
| So that vnnethis vp on is hors he sat | |
| He nolde auale nother hood ne hat | |
15 | Ne abyde noman for his curtesye | |
| But in Pilatis vois he gan crye | |
| And swoor be armys blood and bonys | |
